Hello Everyone!
I am so excited about today's post because I have been nominated for the Liebster Blog Award thanks to Morrell from Morrell's Armoire! This award was created to recognize new blogs who have less than 200 followers. If the nominee chooses to accept the award, they must follow these three simple rules:
1. Thank the blogger who nominated you and link them back.
Thank you so much Morrell! I'm so honored that you chose to recognize my blog! (And for those of you who have not already checked out her fashion blog, please do! She is amazing and absolutely gorgeous!)
2. Answer the eleven questions that the blogger who nominated you gave.
3. Nominate five - eleven bloggers who have under 200 followers and give them eleven different questions to answer.
Morrell's Questions for Me:
1. Why did you start your blog?
I love to write and read. Writing about something I love (fashion) makes it all the more worthwhile. Also, reading a good blog is like reading a good book. You catch a glimpse of someone's life and the things that interest them the most. For me, it's almost therapeutic.
2. What are you hobbies outside of blogging?
I love to scrapbook and do crafts. I haven't had the time to do it lately, but I love doing anything crafty. I also love to go to the river or beach and spend time on the water. My family has a camp house on the river and most of my favorite summer memories were spent there. Also, cheering on my Alma Mater, the Alabama Crimson Tide, in softball, baseball, and especially football!
3. Describe your style?
Feminine. I love dresses and heels. If I could get away with it, I'd wear them every day.
4. What is your favorite fashion season and why?
Spring is my favorite fashion season. The fabric of the clothing gets lighter and bright colors have made it back to my wardrobe!
5. Are there any movies that inspire your style?
Not that I can really think of. I'm not usually a big movie person.
6. What is one random fact about yourself?
I made up my own recipe for Pecan Pie using two conflicting recipes. My recipe is the best Pecan Pie you will ever put in your mouth! (If I do say so myself! :) )
7. What is the best advice for starting a new blog?
Start researching existing blogs. There are so many out there and they can be found through Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, and many other types of social media! Check out Tumblr and Blogger, also! Find out the types of blogs you like and dislike and decide what you want your blog content to be about. Then just take a leap of faith!
8. What are your favorite places to shop?
I like to shop at Jilly B. (of course! :) ), Apricot Lane, Ellie Crimson, and Private Gallery. I also enjoy places like Charlotte Russe, Charming Charlie's, and Forever 21 because you can get more for your money from there!
9. How do you use a budget for your wardrobe?
My wardrobe budget is very limited these days. And my friends and family will tell you, I am not the best at sticking to a budget! That is one reason I like to shop at stores like Charlotte Russe, Charming Charlie's, and Forever 21. They have stylish clothes but are much more budget friendly than boutiques! When I buy for my wardrobe I usually make a list of what I am looking for and try to stick to that list. And if the item is more of a staple in my closet that I know I will use for a long time, I don't mind paying a little extra for it.
10. What is your favorite piece of clothing you couldn't live without?
I could not live without my Jessica Simpson heels. They are black suede, closed-toed, five inch heels with two buckled straps on them and I LOVE them!! Just ask all my friends! :)
11. What famous person mostly inspires your style?
Jessica Alba inspires my style the most! She always looks so pulled together whether she's wearing jeans and a t-shirt or an evening gown. She knows what works best on her and she isn't afraid to take risks either!
